Voip has become highly popular within a very short time. Even we are using voip service available at vontrump.com

i have this modem and when i connect it to my ps3 it wont obtain the i.p adress HELP MEE!!!!

[umana2482]

@NewEraGaming2010 Incase you still need help. remove the power cord and remove the battery from the modem. It will do a reset. plug the ethernet cable to the ps3 then put the battery back in and plug in your power cord to the modem. This should help connect your ps3 to playstation network.

Sounds like you are either not getting a signal through your cable or the modem is bad.

[talkingdigitaltv]

Yes, but don't look for a splitter. Get a wireless router with 4 or 5-port hub. They can be purchased at Wal-Mart or Best Buy for between $30-$100. These will allow you to use multiple computers both wired and wireless with this modem.

One thing that I think you should of mentioned about this Arris modem (at least something that I notice with my ISP), is that the Arris modem sometimes locks on to a certain MAC address, and will not work with any other MAC. To reset the modem in this fashion, there is a reset pin hole on the back (at least on my model), that you can press for about 2 seconds, then you can plug in any device.

does that modem hav a standby button?

[talkingdigitaltv]

This particular modem does not have a standby button but many of them do. In any case, the standby button has nothing to do with resetting the modem. All the standby button does is cuts communication with the Internet off.

I have seen many cases where the Internet is only down because the standby button has been pressed.

[iiH8raciistFUX]

ok thanks

[fattonybob]

does thi reset the ip address as well?

[talkingdigitaltv]

Excellent point.

I also should have clarified that this does not work if your broadband service is out completely and it is the fault of your ISP. However, if your ISP does go down completely, often you will not get a stable connection back up until you go through this process, once the ISP comes back online.

I will note, that simply unplugging your router and plugging it back in may not help. I strongly recommend leaving your router unplugged for 30 seconds at least.

Generally I unplug my router, leave it unplugged until I have fully reset the modem, and do not plug it in until the modem has come back online.
